1) Two NXT Stars Who Vince McMahon Is A Big Fan Of
According to WrestlingNews.co, Vince McMahon is really high on two of NXT’s top stars.
The first person who Vince is apparently high on is Keith Lee. Here is an excerpt from the report about Lee:
He may have others who he likes but he was overheard by a source praising Lee and feels like he could be a powerhouse heel whenever he gets called up to Raw or SmackDown. Lee is someone who is liked by everyone in the locker room and he has a bigger chance than most of the NXT roster to succeed because of his size. It doesn’t hurt that people on creative like him so he has a lot of people behind him.
Vince is also apparently a big fan of Matt Riddle. Here is an excerpt about Riddle:
Another name who has been given praise by McMahon is Matt Riddle. Although some people would criticize him for being too outspoken, McMahon likes him and recently compared him to a young Shawn Michaels.
A source told me, “Vince like guys like Shawn who have that rebel mentality and he sees some of Shawn in Matt. Matt can rub some people the wrong way but he’s a good guy and he will do great when Vince calls him up. I think he’s a future world champion. Vince will try to tweak him but his personality will get him far.”
